Chapter 5: Hazels POV
We gathered pots of dirt from the boys, then walked over to the garden putting flowers in them adding them to the garden that was made for newcomers coming in to heaven.
"So, I see you and Augustus are together." She said looking up at me from her pot of dirt. I nodded pursing my lips. "What's it like?" she asked with a confused look still looking at me. I haven't yet looked up from my pot of dirt because I knew her face would kill me.
"What is what like?" she asked. "Stealings someones true love when it wasn't yours to begin with?" she said with a smile. My heart dropped. She knew she was killing me. I stopped patting down the dirt just looking down as she continued with her work. Grinning.
What did she mean steal? "What do you mean ?" I stuttered still looking down. "You listen close now." She started moving her face towards mine. Her voice suddenly got a little quieter. I think she lowered her voice so no one would hear her yell at me. "I watched him everyday from the sky ever since I left and I have waited everyday for him to come here and I will not let you ruin it. And the moment I saw him. His face lit up and told me he was happy to see me." She said.
I dropped tools and told myself not to walk away. Its a lie. Its a lie. Then I finally got up and left. I could feel her smirk getting bigger with every step I took away from her. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. He really did forget who I was or is it all a trick? Is he lying when he tells me he loves me? I honestly didn't know where I was going, I just wanted to get the farthest away from him as I could.
Once I made it to the parking lot, I heard Augustus behind me. "Hazel? Hazel! What's up with her?" I heard Augustus say to Danny who was also on dirt duty. "I don't know, she seemed annoyed. She has been talking to Caroline this whole time." Tears started to form in my eyes. I was still walking away, I was walking towards the road that lead home.
"Oh crap, Hazel, Hazel we need to talk!" he screamed. More tears formed. The welled up but weren't streaming. "There's nothing to talk about." I said turning around.
"What did she say to you! You know she is just trying to mess with you." He said softly looking down, defeatedly. "What did she say to you, huh? Because didn't we just go through how she will never come between us before we got here?" He said tears forming in his eyes.
I looked away. He never really saw me cry. Yet we were so close there was nothing to be embarrassed about. "She told me, when you got here." I started. I stopped. right then. I started to cry in my hands about to fall from sadness. He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me into a hug. He was holding me, stroking his hand up and down my hair. Telling me shh between each of my sobs. Then he let me go and followed me to his car.
Once we were in our seats, he asked "So, what did she say?" He said defeatedly. "She told me once you arrived, you screamed her name. She came running to you and you never been happier." I stopped.
"Hazel Grace, you listen to me." he said, grabbing my face. "There's nothing on this earth that would ever make me leave you. I only thought of you when I was here. Caroline is a brat. She never knows what on earth is going on. It's called lying-"
"But then why did she make it sound so real. You weren't there Augustus, she created this mental picture in my head but it felt so real." I interrupted.
"And how do you think I fell for her?" Augustus asked me. It was silent. "I'm sorry. It's just I don't want to be that little jealous girlfriend thats always worried about the littlest things." I confessed.
"Trust me thats not you, it will never be you and now you know never to believe her." he said.
I nodded. "What did you and Caroline do while I wasn't here?" I asked turning my body towards him.
"We? Honest to God, I never even spent time with her. All I did was watch you." He said smiling and blushing. "Seriously, while I ate and slept?" I said with smile. "Mostly while you slept, and you were beautiful doing it." he said. I admired him in awe. He was really cute today. His hair swept back and a T-shirt.
"Caroline also said I stole you. What's that supposed to mean?" I asked smiling. "Well lets just say, I was never hers to begin with." he said. I smirked. He grabbed my hand and kissed me. "Lets get out of here." he said. I happily agreed.
